Venice Tea & Chocolate Tasting Tour
Did you know that, according to legend, tea was first discovered in China over 4,000 years ago by Emperor Nun Shen? The Emperor was sitting beneath a tree while his servant boiled drinking water, when some leaves from the tree blew into into the pot releasing an inviting aroma. The Emperor, a famous herbalist, decided to try the infusion that his servant had accidentally created and loved it.
